In a hilarious moment, a dog was left terrified by a giant hand silhouette cast upon a wall.

Boie, the curious Shih Tzu, was watching the dark shape of his owner’s hand on a white background when he suddenly scrambled off the bed in fear in Bulacan.

Footage shows Pola Ann Nicole Rom commanding Boie to turn around before wiggling her fingers in front of a flashlight.

The shape then projected an oversized, moving shadow that loomed over the startled pooch.

Caught off guard by the sight, Boie immediately scrambled away from the wall and ran toward Pola, while his prankster owner burst into laughter on December 18.

“He’s such a curious dog, so we thought he’d notice the shadow on the wall. We tried to scare him a little, and it was so funny that he got startled and immediately ran to us for protection,” Pola said.
